dear Miss CustisLee: Mr. Dimples has asked me to offer his best regards - and relief on hearing that you have been sighted on-site <smooch>
Letty, glad to see you made it through and made it back.
ehBeth, I have always wondered if dimples fill up with water when it rains?
How could Ivan possibly compete with the living, walking, talking history channel of A2K. I'm still trying to justify my original assertion that I was named after someone in the Lee family. Did Robert have a dog named blondie? Or was that Hitler.
That was Hitler, I believe, Letty!
Greetings from BigDice who is too lazy to get up from the sofa... :-)
Letty, so good to see ya.
acquiunk and Soz. It's good to be home. (resisting the urge to say there's no place like home and I don't have any ruby slippers to click)
Later all.
Good to see you Letty! Ivan the Terrible is right... last night they said he was a rare Category 5 storm.
yes, adolf's german shepherd dog was called 'blondie', i believe(perhaps setanta can confirm this ?). hbg
Wow I am so glad you are all OK, I have held you all in the light more than usual during these last two storms.
And here is hoping Ivan the Terrible move right past Florida and give some of the other Gulf States some wind and rain.
In my opinion who would want to live in a state where all you get mostly is hurricanes that destroy your houses and lives. Maybe you guys that live down where all the hurricanes and tornado's are should move up here in NY it is very nice and we get regualr seasonal weather.
We all live where we live because we like it.....we take the good with the bad......hurricanes in the southeast....tornados in the midwest....bush in texas and washington....we all have a cross to bear......glad everyone in the A2K family FLA branch came out all right.......
Damn Phoenix...what an exciting life you've lead when your number one memorable anecdote is almost shitting your pants on a train ride.....girl you need to get out more......
Bi- Ah! But you didn't hear the rest of the story. I had been on the game show, "Concentration", and had won a bunch of stuff. Into my third game, all of a sudden I started not to feel well, and I lost. And then, on my way home....................
That's great to hear. I wonder, are they making contact with everyone in your area or did you ahve to contact them first?
I love living here in Florida near the beach. I've been here for 25 years and I've weathered 2 bad hurricanes in that time. To me it's a small price to pay.
Phoenix, the things I keep finding out from you!
{{{{{{{{{{LETTY}}}}}}}}}}
Wow, it's wonderful to know you all are safe--as possible with Ivan rearing his ugly head. Haven't read any news today, so i don't know if Ivan is a serious threat.
Panzade, Phoenix is a little dynamo. I'll bet her walk in closet is in perfect order by now and that she is well-stocked for Ivan if he comes.
Good thoughts are with you all.
I will be here, Diane, until the last flower withers and dies. As my mother once said, " Lawd, darlin', it depends on how the weather is."
Phoenix and Rae, Diane and Roger, Urs and BigDice, Misti .................
For now, I must think of others and hope that I can....
Letty, you promised to tell us about "your time in the shelter."
John of Virginia, I will honor that promise. I simply must collect my thoughts.
